    SAHO CHE Award
    In 2010, SAHO will launch an annual $500 award for up to four employees of SAHO member agencies who are taking the Certified Health Executive (CHE) program from the Canadian College of Health Service Executives.  This award was established with funding turned over to SAHO by the Saskatchewan Association of Health Services Executives after it dissolved in 2008. For over 40 years the organization promoted excellence in health services management with the primary objectives of providing learning opportunities, networking and member representation.
